Hi Reader
​
By now, you know walking is a big part of my life. It’s how my coaching journey started, by reconnecting with nature and, eventually, myself. Hence the name, a Backyard Hiker, if you didn't make that connection yet 😊

First, it was giraffes and acacia trees, and then walking alongside my coaching clients. A lot of magic happens when you move.

This week, something happened that reminded me of the power of a walk. When walking on campus, I noticed a classmate a few meters ahead of me.

She had her headphones in. Zoned out. Moving quickly.

I could have left it there.

But instead, I caught up and asked,

“Mind if I walk with you?”

She smiled, pulled out her earbuds, and said yes.

We didn’t talk about anything world-shaking.

But we did talk.

And for 15 minutes, we weren’t just two strangers headed to the same class.

We were two humans sharing a moment. A pace. A presence.

When’s the last time you walked beside someone, literally or figuratively, and let the rhythm of connection carry you somewhere new?

Coaching is like that.

It’s not about having all the answers and solutions.

It’s about walking alongside someone until they find their own.

👟 This week, I challenge you to invite someone to walk with you.

A friend, a colleague, a stranger who looks like they could use the company and then take it all in 🌿

Sending you love from Canada 🇨🇦

P.S. If you’re feeling like it’s time to walk a different path, or reconnect with what you truly want in life or business, let’s explore it together.

You can book a complimentary discovery call to explore how coaching can support your next step. No pressure, just a conversation. 😊
